The week that followed was nothing short of hectic.
A national-level competition was coming up in just two weeks, and Coach Richard wanted Dayo to participate. After all, Dayo had never competed in any real tournament, and Richard believed this would test his limits.
Dayo, meanwhile, was double-tasking. Between his swimming training and planning new content ideas for his upcoming project, his schedule was packed. He spent hours every night sitting at his desk, writing down concepts, sketching outlines, and noting ideas for future videos or music campaigns. It felt like his brain was constantly moving.
Richard couldn't hide his surprise at how adaptable Dayo was. For someone who hadn't been professionally trained, Dayo never complained once. He simply did the work — and did it well. By the end of the first week, Richard was stunned to discover that Dayo's swim times already placed him among the Top 20 athletes in the United States for the 50-meter freestyle.
